Newt Gingrich's latest attack on the First Amendment is a revealing insight into the long term agenda of elite minds in America today. Those who would be successors to the Bush Administration are even more bent on power and dominance and they see absolutely no place for the freedoms America was founded on to continue to exist under their leadership.

Sometimes there is a fine line between disturbing my peace and freedom of speech.

Think of it this way. Would you consider having the police respond to shut up the guy who is sitting outside your house with a megaphone yelling racist comments into your livingroom a violation of free speech? The point is; there is a fine line between being force fed someone's opinions and just having some peace and quiet. Of course I am talking about the physical aspect here of actually voicing words from a mouth. I don't have any problem with someone having an opinion and even having something to say about it. But when all you see is some back and fourth this and that it gets old and becomes like noise pollution.
